Clickatell, a leading
mobile messaging provider, today announced new pricing and expanded
short-message service (SMS) solutions for companies in Argentina,
Brazil, Chile and Mexico.

Clickatell has expanded availability of its short-code SMS service –
which provides an easy to remember five-digit number for 2-way texting
campaigns – and has reduced its bulk-messaging prices in these countries
to as low as 2c per message.

Combined, these changes make it even easier for companies to run
effective mobile marketing, notification or alerting campaigns via SMS.
Now, Latin American companies, from small business to large enterprises
can use Clickatell’s web portal, free APIs and inside sales and support
for access to a mobile messaging gateway that enables customers to send
messages to almost any mobile phone across 819 mobile networks in more
than 220 countries.

In addition, for campaigns of 10,000 messages or less per month,
developers and small business can use Clickatell’s Small
Business API, which reaches all Latin American mobile operators at a
very cost effective rate.
